How Tommi-Jai blends approaches for online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead. It helps when someone needs space to talk, be heard, and make sense of their own goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It uses specific exercises and experiments to shift unhelpful patterns and reduce distress. Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress without making things worse.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to figure out which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. They adjust the mix of listening, skills practice, and reflection as progress and priorities change.
